Forth Step: Biscuit Dough

During this next step it is very important NOT TO OVERWORK THE BISCUIT DOUGH. This will cause your biscuits to be hard, just as I stated above.

Now form the biscuit dough into a ball. Lift it out of the bowl and place it on a very floured cutting board. Roll the biscuit dough out using a floured rolling pin. It should be about 3/4 of an inch thick.

Next, using the biscuit cutter shape the biscuits. It is always important to cut the biscuits out around the edge and then move towards the middle. This way you use as much of the dough as possible. Use the left over scraps to form the last biscuit.
